Just because it is not glamorous does not mean it is not necessary.
As I pursue this business, I learn much about my potential clients. One night at a gathering of the Chamber of Commerce, I was having drinks when I ran into a fellow who asked me what I did for a living. I told him I was a software entrepreneur and that the company helped small businesses track fleet maintenance and inventory. He casually asked me to show him my wares, and I went through a standard demonstration showing off the general features of my product. He was excited, gave me his business card, and told me to get in touch. He worked for a company that provided porta-potty services for the county.
I was a bit s at this encounter, but. Still, it is set in that a company that provides portable outhouses for public events needs my services just as much as any trucking company or fleet of vehicles. For health and safety reasons, a company like that must keep track of how the units they provide are maintained and kept clean. That was why he was so interested in our Tony software. We offered an economical means to track how he took care of his units and if they were safe for the public.
Tony allows a company like that to track how long a unit has been out in the field. A company can track when the bio-blue fluid is changed in a unit, and it can even send reminders via e-mail to ensure this kind of maintenance is done. You can also use that information to coordinate with insurance companies and healthcare departments to get favorable treatment and better insurance rates. So, using Tony software for your Porta-Potty business makes sense.
We have received inquiries from many businesses we did not expect to use our service. Agriculture companies want to know if our software can be used to track hours of operation for farming equipment. We have been hearing from school bus services and now porta-potty companies. It seems that our software helps fill a niche. This got me thinking that as technology grows into the economy and becomes a necessary tool, then any business could use our software.
That fits our vision of E3 Systems as we try to help better small and medium-sized businesses use their money more wisely. Contact us today and see how we can help.
Porta-Potties are not glamorous but are necessary. If you have been searching for one at a street festival or athletic event, you understand why. Our software is not glamorous either, but we feel it is necessary if you want your business to succeed.
Until next time.
